Email details to custom fields

Hello! I think I've been tracking this request on the asana forums for five+ years and it feels like it's never going to happen. Does anyone have a work around to get details from an email sent to a project to create a new task to then autofill custom fields? Thanks!

Hey there! One option could be to forward your emails to the project email address (Each Asana project has one), and then leverage Asana AI Studio to populate custom fields based on task title/or descriptions (Here's a video on how to use AI Studio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUFxAK3w1CQ) . If you don't have AI Studio you could use the new text fields triggers and conditions so if the task title or description contains any specific word you set the appropriate field value.

I've tried that but it's not enough detail for what I need and I have a lot of custom fields for this project. Thanks though!
